Evan trains at Junior Tennis Champion Center, College Park. He is #13 blue chip freshman. Evan just finished 2nd in Eddie Herr, B14. He wins by consistency. He will play a top D1 school for sure, possibly following his sister Amy to U Michigan. The top 5 freshmen blue chips are much more advanced at this point.

I know Evan Zhu and let me tell you he is one great player. Not as good as Francis tiafoe, yet.

Right now, Francis is better than Evan. They play very different games, Francis hits flat and hard while Evan is a super grinder. After Evan improves his serves and his net game (and grows another 7-8" and 50 more lbs), he will be a beast.

No I am only helping my son as his "consultant". My son practiced with Evan a few times in the summer. He never got a chance to play Francis in tournament or practice; but I watched him play 6-7 times in the past 3-4 years, most recently in Dayton, B16/L2 where Francis lost the 3rd set tiebreak to a blue chip senior.

The full-time Kids at JTCC are doing Laurel Spring cyber school that has a pretty good reputation with college admission. It's highly possible that Francis would turn pro before he finishes high school.
